I was in that Chipotle. One minute I’m minding my own business eating a mediocre burrito, the next there’s two dudes fighting right next to me and at least 20 more in the restaurant and lots more right outside the door.

Looked to me like there was one dude getting chased/beat up by several others, but I didn’t stick around long enough to really tell.

I was just on the bus passing through there, and a couple people said they saw a big fight happened. They said they saw a hundred kids running into the Chipotle, but it sounds like the fight was around that intersection.

The high school kids have been especially rowdy since Covid, as evidenced by all the teachers quitting recently.

Makes sense. The worst part about a combined subway-train commute is the unpredictability of the subway, especially if you are doing an additional transfer. Because that means you don't know if you'll make the train you want to take home, unless you leave a lot of extra "just in case" time. At least with walking or biking, you pretty much know exactly when you'll arrive.

If we all lived in Central and Northern Europe where the trains run like clockwork every 5 minutes it would be different.
